If you do so, local people will treat you the same way they treat illegal. after all the agitation and rally it created a negative sentiment for the illegal. So not a good idea. If we do somthing it should give result, not to create stir among public

What was your PD ,and wating time for I-140.(ie I-140 applied and approved date.)
OK I'm from ROW EB3. PD Apr 2003. 140 and 485 were filed concurrently in June 2004. I 140 was approved in 1 week (I guess because my son was aging out) and I-485 for all family were approved in June 2007.

Why are you equating quality of life to owning a house?
- Because you are an "owner"? No you are not! You are renting the house from the bank
- Because you have a backyard?- go out and rent a house. They are a dime a dozen, will cost you half the cost of your monthly mortgage payment
- Because you have peace of mind? Really. Read your other post on people getting laid off
- Because your (ok someone else's) kid asked if you are poor? Really? A kid's innocent question is going to make you gamble (that's what investing in an immovable asset is in your situation) away a decade of savings?
- Because you want to give your child the best possible childhood? Think about it, if things turn for the worse either in your economy/company/job (absolutely do not wish it on anyone), and you are forced to move/sell the house/get foreclosed upon etc., how much more have you hurt your family and traumatized them in your effort to give them a great childhood?
- How many nights of peaceful sleep have you lost lying awake wondering what you would do if you/your spouse lost a job, had to move etc.?
I still cannot understand how/why someone would buy a house in the bay area ($700K+ for a SFH in a minimally liveable area) and $1M+ in places like Cupertino.
I will enjoy my quality of life in my rented condo (with a rent 1/3rd of the monthly mortgage payment it would take to buy it) and take my 2 year old to the park if he feels like he needs a back yard. Dont need to mow the lawn either!
Thumbsup!!
There is a perception on this board that renting => no quality of life. After going through some of the replies, I see that some are trying to convince themselves of their decision to buy a house.

Finally Greened. It's an amazing feeling.
Just checked my MAIL (Saturday) and it had my approval mail as well as Physical Card. Strangely both came in together.
Thanks to IV, I am not a donor but time and again I keeping making one time donations. This forum provides so much knowledge that money support is the most trivial thing that one can do.
Few more notes that might help other folks who are current in May and waiting to be Green
First I have email and mobile alert on for my 485 but got none and the status on my portfolio still says Request for Evidence Response View. Last LUD is still Aug, 2010.
Second I had an RFE in Apr 2009, General RFE asking for work details from my employer.
Got FP just once.
My PD Jun12,2006 NSC
I have not changed my company but my company had been bought and name changed and all this year I have moved and changed roles and profiles. Also I am on EAD though never changed jobs.
I was anxiously waiting but didn't opened any SR or contacted congressmen. I was planning to do that next week.
By the way I am still waiting for my spouse's GC.
I added my spouse on my application in 2008 (last quater when dates touched Aug 1,2006 before retrogressing)
I am going to party this weekend for my GC and next weekend for my spouse's :-) Only advantage of not getting both GC's at same time.
Congratulations to all that got their GC this May & Good Luck to all those who are current in May and will become current next month.

Since we now know that SA 187 had nothing to do with immigration and that it WAS indeed passed, the possible typo in this thread (about SA 187) title should be changed to something along the lines "Senate immigration amendment to H.R 2 NOT passed".
Besides we should whoheartedly explore with Kennedy, Kerry et al. if they game for pushing the immigration amendment (w/o the hard 10% country cap) in the house-senate conference.
If they are playing politics with the Sen Session illegal immigrant amendment (which passed!) we might as well use their tete-a-tete to our advantage ;)

I had e-filed for me and my wife on 05/14.
App went to NSC. Sent docs on 05/19 - delivered on 05/21
Soft LUD on 05/17, 05/18 and on 05/24
Got receipts on 05/21
Yesterday (05/25) got ASC notice for FP for my wife.. is FP needed for EAD??
I thought last time we got FP notice.. it said app type as I-485.. that time.. in July fiasco.. we had applied for 485/EAD/AP all together
Have not got my FP notice yet
I have a Que - my daughter is 7 and initially the attorney had applied for EAD for her too... but then after the first time (2007) I did not apply for her EAD.. I thought no point in wasting $340 every time..
Now since FP notices are coming for my wife and hopefully for me - how about FP notice for my daughter? Do I need to apply for EAD for her.. to get FP notice?
If I don't get FP notice for her - will her Case be ok?
Anyone has similar experience.. pls reply...

No member has to search for the lawyer conference call thread in the forums section at all. They just have to read the threads running on the home page!. Every week that we have the conference call, the thread runs with the red title "Free Conference Call on -date- -Lawyer name- frm -firm name", and it is mostly me who keeps the thread alive from Monday through Thursday! I have even started a thread on the Ask the lawyer section announcing this and I kept the thread on the home page until the third week of this month - when we had the last call for the month of March. I have not kept it up on the home page with all the advocacy activities we are involved in - but I would think that the members who benefited from the calls would want to help by keeping it up on the home page...........but that does not happen either (although wait_for_ever_gc and SGP tried for a few weeks).
This is exactly what I mean when I say "frustration" - The services are clear on the title and runs on the home page every week. Yet members say, I can't find it!
i don't get it you are saying that members don't have to search...and yet someone has to keep it up on the home page...which is it? yes a sticky thread would have saved work and not required someone to keep it up. Why wasn't it done in the first place. When a service is supposed to be offered every week...it should be offered every week...or else there should be an announcement that is will not be offered this particular week and that it will continue next on said week.
No reason to be frustrated when people are asking simple questions...another idea would be to put the answers to the most frequently asked questions on the FAQ page...which does not work right now....so that you don't have to repeat the answers.
Its an easy solution i think.
Giving a long lecture of frustration is not the best way to attract people to an organisation.
Think about it...do u go buy clothes from a store that voices their frustrations about the prices of raw material...of do u go buy it because they were nice to you...had great customer service...nice selection of goods...and fair prices.
I am sorry but working for hours on end alone, voicing frustration at lack of participation, treating members like they are morons for not being able to find supposedly simple things is a really terrible way to attract more people to an organisation. The cause may be noble...but who will wanna join some organisation where people just complain about how miserable things are.
Please pause for a moment and think about what i am saying. This is exactly why you have less participation and less donation. IV needs to transform into a vibrant fun place to be while still upholding the noble cause.

I hope this will help, if lot of these local congressmen/women contact USCIS to handle this spillover in a fair manner, allocating to older priority date cases first irrespective of category or country. All EB3 folks please take some time and do the same writing to your congressmen about this issue.

One more technique, I have used.... give your friend $10 or $20 in cash & ask him to go online and contribute an amount by adding some money to your cash contribution...

I received an email today from USCIS requesting additional information on my case. My wife received identical email like I did.
Please let me know
1. How many days does it take for USCIS to send the letter.
2. How many days does it take for USCIS to look into my case again once I send the evidence requested.
Did anyone receive similar evidence requests. What evidence do they possibly need in this phase....

Hi folks, just as predicted, my email thread to select contacts resulted in one outright racist response. i dont want this group to get distracted or distressed if you too get such responses. take a look at the original note below and my response. remain brave. remain strong. this is a LEGAL immigration process in the US economic interest too.
hopefully people will begin to realize that anti-legal-immigration is just a facade for deep rooted racism.
Best.
A SELF AVOWED RACIST RESPONSE from A PERSONAL CONTACT
I have to let you know that not only will I not support this bill, but I am vehemently against the legal immigration of workers that are originally brought here to usurp positions that would have otherwise been held by skilled Americans. I agree that this is a racist and exclusionary position, but I also know many people who can no longer get work at the level they deserve due to the displacement they have experienced as a result of this foreign worker influx.
Please remove me from any future posts regarding this or related issues.
MY RESPONSE
i know how the native americans must have felt when the pilgrims landed... oh that darned foreign influx.
i will not dignify your self avowed racism with the erudition of economics, capitalism, innovation, globalization, human rights or the rich history of the united states as a melting pot of cultures ... all of which are underpinning factors that are in the long term US economic interests in high skilled LEGAL immigration. of course, these tend to be conveniently ignored on the altar of superficial sentiment, myopic protectionism and deep-rooted xenophobia.
it would be best that we not be on each others' personal contacts or have any future interaction at all.

Till early part of 2004 or latter part of 2003, most of the Indians applied EB3 very few applied EB2. After 2004, it was reverse. I doubt any one appled EB3 in 2005 0r 2006.
If EB3 stays continously in 2001 and EB2 in 2004 (there is 3 year difference in cutoff date between EB2 and EB3 now), the guys with EB3 PD 2002 and 2003 will convert to EB2 by applying new 140 to transfer PD. This flow will balance the cut-off dates. Eventually it will reach a common ground or a break-even point.
So, when a 485 is pending, can one file for a new LC (under EB2), I140 and have two GC in progress simutaneously?
